Halloween Subway Art...

My new love {subway art}! There are so many fun things you can do with subway art for any holiday or season or well...anything!! My first one I did was a Halloween one! I have many different ideas for a thanksgiving one, christmas, wedding....your options are endless!!! Here is how I made the Halloween one!!
{Halloween Subway Art}
Item's Needed:
1- piece of any size board...I used a square scrap piece of wood I had
White Paint
Orange paint
Paint brush
Vinyl lettering with lots of Halloween words
Sand Paper

Here is a Step by Step of what I did!
Step 1: Take your scrap piece of wood/board and paint it with a good coat of white.
Step 2: After your white paint drys/ Streak with a napkin or cloth with Orange paint
Step 3: Sand it down! Distress and weather it all up!
Step 4: Start by laying your lettering on to see what fits best...you can play with it, turn it different directions and then once you love what you see start applying it on to the wood!
Step 5: Take a stand and set it on a shelf next to your other Halloween decor or wherever you please and ENJOY!!!!
Have Fun!! :)

  1. There's a REALLY cool website that does something similar to this.... wordle.net. You can type in words, or copy and paste text, and it scrambles them up like that, you can choose which direction they go (even random), and like if you do a paragraph or something, the more a word is used, the bigger it is. AND you can change the colors. It's way cool :)
